THE SHERIFF Is PLEASED.
He Says McGarigle will be Arrested
and Prosecuted by the Canadian
Authorities.

CHICAGO, August 4.-Sherin Matson and In
spector Bontield received some pleasing inteli-
gence by dispatches from Canada last evening.
They refused to allow them TO be seen, but their
purp0rt was that 1t was definitely settled that
McGar1gle will be prosecuted at Montreal, and
that 1t was certain that his arrest by the Canadian
authorities was a question OF very short time:
hiding yesterday was closely patroled, and he
would not get out OF 1T as easy as he passed
through the straits OF Nackinac. Both officials
went home with the most comfortable feeling
they have experienced since the escape.
M'GARIGLE INTERVIEWED.
local paper has a long special from st. Cath
arines, ont, this morning giving what purports TO
be an exclusive interview with McGar1gle. The
correspondent describes the fugitive as looking
very poorly: After some preliminary talk, In
ambitious newspaper correspondents, McGarigle
said: "Now am going to make TO you short
OF your paper / will write down what say and
you can copk1t. In this way will have copy,
and II 1t is changed snail be able to show that
you have mfSrepreSented me-"
He then dictated a letter In which he reiterated
his former statements that 1t was impossible for
him to live In Jail He denies having offered to
testify In behalf of the State and says there was
nothing wrong with the hospital management.
He knows nothing that would connect N. C.
Mcdonald with any sort OF a crime. He is anX-
iOus to make settlement OF his affairs, so as TO
60 back to Chicago, but he cannot consent to
go to
THE JAIL OR PENrTENTrARY
On the train McGar1gle gave account OF his
experience since he left Sarnta. After driving 10
Wyoming and taking the train for London, as has
been reported, he went to Hamilton, and from
there TO Niagara FallS-the Canada si6e OF course.
From there he took the Canada Southern TO Dunn
Vile, changing to the Grand Trunk at Port Col
borne. He was not, he says. I'm ST. Cathar.neS at
all Tuesday, but passed through there on his way
to the falls. NcGar1gle, when told about the BaX-
ter case against him, said he was not worried
about that; he would get the officials OF the
province OF ontario to give Montreal notice that
she Will have to prove the alleged perjury OF
defamation OF character before he would go there
He is not afraid that any charge OF forgery be
trumped up against him.
ANXIOUS ABOUT THE BLAKE.
McGarigle is very anxious tor the arrival OF the
Blake as he has valuable baggage on that vessel
His pockets are flled with money and he evidently
has interests OF money character In the arrival
OF the Blake. McGartgle II may be natly stated Is
in the care and keeping OF Frederick st. John,
brother OF the DOCTOR This is not to say that he
Is at the st. John mansion, which is the finest
ST. Catharines, nor can the writer, without break
ing faith with McGarigle, say what residence he
OF the case Is the wonderful risk DIR. st. John
has taken to aid McGarigle TO escape. When
asked what he thought Of Dr. St. Johns chances
OF going to the penitentiary McGarigle
BROKE DOWN LIKE A CHILD.
He would not even speak. Unless detectives get
too close to McGarge he will remain here for the
with states Attorney Grlnnell for his return. For
this he Is very anxious. He says he does not want
to bring his wife and children away from Chicago
He is very much opposed to talking about the
Cook County thieves. He appears TO be IN good
health, but his nerves have been worked to high
tension and he says he must have rest or he can
not survive long. One OF the Strangest things
about him is that he has shaved his face, leaving
the mOustache and side whiskers. but cutting OF
the goatee, SO as to correspond exactly with the
photographs pasted upon Sheriff Matsons $500
reward circular. This evening he read 1t over
carefully and then aughingly said: 'It is not ex
actly complimentary. The description is good ex-
cept the 'cat-like movement and the insinuating
manner; but Shan't complain"

surrendering convicted boOdler OF the McGar1gle
stripe. True, Canada is not legally bound to sur
render him, but what do we want OF him. A New
York paper points out that under similar circum-
stances Spain surrendered Tweed. Why should
not Canada give up McGar1gle?"
